Brad and Jenn OK for Broadway parody

Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt have a sense of humour when it comes to a parody of themselves. The once Hollywood power couple gave their consent to Star Wars actress Carrie Fisher for use in her comic autobiographical Broadway play Wishful Drinking. Fisher, the daughter of Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, makes a parallel in Wishful Drinking about her parents' love life and the Pitt-Aniston-Angelina Jolie triangle. Fisher left Reynolds for Elizabeth Taylor. "Anything that had to do with anyone else, I made sure that I went to them and cleared it with them," said Fisher, who tells the story of her own troubled journey and lifetime with celebrity. But she sought Pitt's consent for the artistic licence. She told Pitt: "This is exactly what your situation is like!" Aniston made no objections, she added, saying: "She's a very nice girl. I didn't speak to her, but I heard that she liked it. At least, I hope she liked it." Fisher's 90-minute play, which debuts on October 25, is already drawing the enthusiastic response of critics.
